Every time I sip anything and it hits bottom, my sleeve instantly starts to gurgle and make little bubbly noises. I actually kinda like this because I feel like I am getting "in touch" with my sleeve....like I'm getting to know this new piece of me.

I'm a hippie. I hug trees too. haha

I have that gargling too. Hope it subsides!

And here I thought it meant I was sipping too fast:-D, never thought of it like I was getting to know my sleeve. Funny

8 months out and my sleeve still taks to me!

Ha ha...that's a good way to look at it!

When you put it that way... My Sleeve is an a$$hole.

Hahaha, my sleeve talks to me and everyone around the dinner table!

Are you guys all on PPIs?

I take prilosec. No clue if it helps but I am scared to stop taking it.

Mine talks too. No PPI. But I do take carafate regularly per doc instructions.

I am not on any PPI's.

My gurgling is not painful. It's not even really uncomfortable other than I may have to stretch out my upper body to allow an air bubble to come up. Most of my stomach was just removed. I expected some kind of weirdness for awhile.

I am on PPIs, have been for a long time. And my sleeve talks to me and people around me. I named her Gurgulina. It does not hurt, just feels sometimes like i have to burp but cant. I take her "chatter" as a sign to slow down a little more

Gurgulina - I love it! Your description fits my experience to a T... Lots of gurgles, very few actual burps, taking all the time, only quiets when I have taken a break from sipping (I am day 5 liquids, Jello, melted yogurt only)...

I have that same sound--good I am glad I am not the only one--getting to know my new buddy the sleeve LOL! I get gassy too--and a little constipated, drinking smooth move from whole foods and that helped ALOT! I am still sleeping on the recliner/sofa and my right side HURTS!!

I like it too. Haha. I thought I was strange.
